The new Dakota law affecting the COL
lection of the taxes of 1885 has finally
been Strengthened out, 1t provides that
all unpaid taxes for 1885 shall become
delinquent February l, 1887, and shall
draw interest at the rate Of one per cent
a month from the date Of such delin-
quency until July /, 1887, when there
shall be added an penalty five per cent
upon the amount SO remaining unpaid.
This measure has passed both houses OF
the legislature. Most of the taxpayers
in this section of Dakota will have paid
their taxes before February LIST and thus
will avoid both interest and penalty.

GRONLUND,s SCHRME,

The disagreement between Henry George
and Laurence Gronlund is interesting,
and is expected to make trouble at
the convention of the "united labor party
which is to be held at Syracuse, New York,
in August. Mr.. George does not 60 far
enough to suit Mr.. Gronlund, who has fine
scheme for making everybody Comfortably
poor"
Gronlund is able to tell what he wants and
it may not be Improbable to glance at his
demands. They are very modest ones. He
and those for whom he speaks demand the
naturalization of capital and the abolition
of all monopoly. They do not mean that the
State shall transact all business, but that it
shall regulate it all, apportioning to each
community or society or trade union the
work that it shall do and SO ordering things
that the supply shall always equal and never
exceed the demand George and the present
united labor platform favor the nationaliza-
tion of railroads and telegraphs. The ideal
of Gronlund is a country where everything
shall be centralized in the State. In this
country things shall be SO arranged that
everybody shall have an opportunity to get
all he needs for his physical and mental COM
fort or luxury, but there shall be no oppor-
tunity for great accumulations in the hands
of individuals. Money, merely as money,
will be worthless. 1t will not have any
earning capacity in itself, ,as it now has in the
form of interest. The land will be owned by
the State and the State will consist of an ag-
gregation of communities, which will work
the land in common. It will be the same
with manufacturing. The State as the great
central authority will fix the amount of each
thing necessary to be produced, and for pro-
| ducing it the workers in each particular trade
will be entitled to charge sum that will be
fair compensation for the labor involved.
+ Machinery and other means of labor, like
| land, will belong to the State. Of course.
says Gronlund, 'fsuch a system will reduce
| to minimum the opportunity for what is
| called profit. Everyone who lsbors with
hand or brain will get just what he earns
| and no more"
This is clear enough. The Springfield Re-
| publican very correctly remarks that this
| ideal condition is only realized now by the
State pauper when he is sent to the Tewks-
| bury almshouse.

line officials Could.
LSalina (Kan) Letter to Memphis Appeal)
have just returned from a trip on the
Sante Fe road west. Syracuse, sixteen miles
from the Colorado line, was the Mecca of my
pilgrimage, because here April they elect
ed a city council of women, and was bent
upon seeing the town that had made this
innovation, and the women who were filling
the council chairs. I wanted to ask the
people how it came about and how it was
working. The first of these ladies introduced
to me was Mrs. E. B. Barbour, fair-faced,
gentle-mannered woman, with an unmis-
taxable air of business about her. l found
this accounted for by the fact that she is a
business woman. Her husband does large
and complicated business; the books are
entirely in her charge. Mrs. Fl. D. Mott is
business woman, too. 1 expect much of
Mrs. Mott in the management of their Suf-
frage society, because of her experience in
Iowa president of the Eighth district
Woman Suffrage Society. Coggeshall says
they were very sorry to lose Mrs. Mott from
their ranks. She is chairman of the Syra-
cuse ssaldermanic force. Mrs. NJ. NJ. Riggles
is quiet little woman, a careful and con-
scientious mother and housewife. She has
a way of making up her mind for herself
and standing firm by her convictions. She
has a reputation among Syracuse male
citizens for being person of excellent judg-
ment. Mrs. S. N. Coe is woman Of excel
lent ability, with enough conservatism to
keep enthusiasm in proper check. No one
of these women is more anxious to do exactly
right than is Mrs. Coe. She is sister to Mrs.
Lemert, president of the Saxon Equal-Snf-
frage society, organized at Dodge City by
Mrs. Saxon and named for her. She has
several such namesakes in Kansas. MIS-. L.

FISHY OREGON STORY.


What a Truthful Hunter Saw and
What 1t Was.
'I was over on Big Sturgeon Lake looking
for duck or goose dinner, when just as
padded my skiff around point, I saw a
deer's horns sticking out of the water near
the shore. I thought it was deer swim
ming across the lake, and without stopping
to look blazed away. I heard some of my
shot strike the horns and then saw them GO
under. I thought that singular, but after
awhile saw them roll up again half mile
off. The idea Of deer swimming that far
under water was paralyzer. I rowed out
cautiously to the horns and found that they
were sticking out of surgeons mouth. He
had swallowed the deer, but had not room
for the horns, and was waiting until he
should have digested the animal so he could
spit out the horns. [ recognized the stur-
geon at once as 'Gros Ventre,' fish I had
known ever since took my claim on the is
land. He was named by priest who had
been missionary among the Indians in
Montana. The fish recognized me and his
eye twinkled as he rolled up to have look
at me, and his silvery sides sort of rippled as
if he was trying to laugh He evidently re-
allied the righteousness of his situation.
but he probably found it was uncomfortable
swimming around with the horns under wa
ter, and so turned over to rest. Now the
gastric juices of the sturgeon are powerful.
/ have known them to dissolve an axe which
sturgeon had swallowed"
"Give US one story at a time" exclaimed
several of the listeners.
"Well, as was going to say, it would not
take the sturgeon long to digest the horns of
deer, but did not like to old ac-
quaintance in such fix, SO cut the horns
off, and blessed if old 'Gros Ventre' didn't
swim out piece and rise up about five feet
clean out of the water and make me one of
the gracefulest bows you ever saw, and then
he leaped his whole length out of the water
and came down with splash which sent the
ripples circling to the farthest shores of Big
Sturgeon Lake"
